Very interesting product, thanks for the link. One disadvantage I can see -- You give up multiple-monitor capabilities (anyway I did not see anything at that link that indicated that multiple monitors were supported). With my cabled setup I have multiple monitor support for both connected laptops, so I can (for instance) leave email up on the company laptop screen and do other things on the main monitor like 3270 or spreadsheets, or . . . as needed.
Still, a very interesting solution to the KVMP issue.

I can drag and drop files from one PC to another. I use the “Pro” version that supports up to 9 PCs. You might remember Stardock Systems from its initial offerings on OS/2: “Object Desktop” and “Galactic Civilization”. No more cables! https://www.stardock.com/products/multiplicity William J.
